Friday May 17
Oskar Blues Tapping

Our chef will be offering an Old Chub infused smoked pulled pork sandwich to go with a rare keg of Oskar the G’Rauch, a smoked IPA. We’ll also have the Old Chub on the nitro tap and a keg of Dale’s Pale Ale as well. Reps from Oskar Blues will be on hand passing out samples and answering questions.

Monday May 20
Off Color and Metropolitan Tapping

We’ll be tapping a keg of Arc Welder from Metro and a TBA beer from Off Color. Representives from both breweries will be there and there might just be a boot race between Pat of Paddy Long’s and Dave of Off Color. It should be epic.

Thursday May 23
Missouri Tap Takeover

Since owner, Pat Berger, originally hails from St. Louis, we figured a Mo. tap takeover was in order. Rare and exciting beers from Perennial, Boulevard and Second Shift Breweries.

Friday May 24
Lagunitas Bacon Night

Paddy’s bacon brain trust has come up with a wet cured bacon made with Lagunitas IPA and then smoked with a dry rubbed designed to go perfectly with a pint of Lagunitas IPA. Everyone who buys a pint recieves a free slice of this hand made bacon. We’ll also have some other fun Lagunitas drafts.

All events are listed on Facebook, so watch the events and our page for updates. Cheers!

Paddy’s was also featured on June 10′s episode of Outrageous Food on Food Network. Tom Pizzica gave The Bomb a try, and gave it two enthusiastic thumbs up.

Lake Effect/DryHop Brewers Belgo-IPA – Shot a Man in Simcoe
Belgo-IPAs are inspired by the American India Pale Ale (IPA) and Double IPA. Various malts are used, but the beers of this style are finished with Belgian yeast strains and the hops tend to be American. The style generally has a cleaner bitterness versus American styles, and a pronounced dry edge, which is very Belgian; often akin to an IPA crossed with a Belgian Tripel. Many examples are quite cloudy and feature tight lacing, excellent retention and fantastic billowy heads that mesmerize (thanks, in part, to the hops). Alcohol by volume is on the high side.

Our version, Shot a Man in Simcoe, fits the above description to a T. We brewed with copious amounts of Centennial, Simcoe, and Citra and it was fermented with French Saison yeast at 80 degrees, which allowed the beer to attenuate about 90 percent. This leads to a dry crisp finish with a few Belgian phenols thrown in for good measure. The finish will be citrusy and floral due to the addition of more Simcoe and Citra during the dry hop process. Be warned this one is an easy drinker for a 7.5% ABV brew.

Ring in 2013 the right way: with a beer in one hand and a pile of bacon in the other.

No Christmas is complete without a visit from Chewie. So he’ll be in Paddy Long’s to give out Christmas treats to beer & bacon lovers this Friday.

We’ll be featuring these Christmas beers on tap:
Delerium Noel, Great Lakes Christmas Ale & Affligem Noel

Warning: This event is so incredible that it can do the kessel run in less than 12 parsecs
